Evan's PoV:

Normally waking up mid-day on the apartment's
Rock hard sofa that Regulus had stole from his home when he first moved into their flat in london, would be Evan's worst nightmare,he would complain for the rest of the day about back pain and how his neck is as stiff as nails,and how he would definitely go seek out a chiropractor to fix his joint pains.

But this was different,this is a moment he would hold dearly in his heart for the rest of his time on this earth,yes,he woke up lying on that horrific sofa,but he had soft black curls tucked perfectly underneath his chin,a smooth cheek resting against his neck,the feeling of delicate eyelashes fluttering gently in the mist of sleep,his arm slung over a small waist,legs tangled up with shorter ones.

Moments like this were his favourite,being able to hold Barty like this,with no interruptions from the outside world,no weird looks from their friends for small touches that lasted a moment too long,no laughs from their roommate as Regulus made fun of how whipped he was for B.None of that,in these moments he was able to run a hand through his best friends curls,run his thumb soothingly over the porcelain skin which held tiny little freckles dancing across his skin like the constellations he used to trace in the night sky as a kid.

As a kid he would wonder if he would ever find 'his person',he wondered wether he would find the one and live a happy life filled with love and soft gazes,Like the characters Regulus would describe from his latest book.And then he met Barty,the second his eyes met the smaller's,he fell,and he fell pretty god damn hard,according to Pandora and Regulus.

Being in love with your best friend is hard,Evan is constantly having to split fiction up from reality,he would have to remind himself of how his feelings aren't reciprocated whenever he would catch B looking at him,or whenever the shorter would laugh at a dumb joke Evan had stole from an old wizarding textbook,or when Barty's fingers lingered on his for a second too long whilst passing him something.

All of this didn't matter in this moment though,the only thing he cared about was making this last for as long as possible,his thumb tracing small circles into the younger's shoulder blades,releasing the tension that was built up in them.Humming sweet nothings into the curly hair,curls that smell like his lavender shampoo he put Into the bathroom for him after their long night of doing some stupid mission for the dark lord.

He lay like that for another 30 minutes,stuck in a fantasy land of imaginary scenarios where cuddling on a sofa with his best friend was a usual occurrence, where instead of best friends,they were a couple,boyfriends, maybe even husbands,who owned a small house up in the country,surrounded by the soft sounds of birds chirping and the sound of the wind hitting the window pains.This thought didn't last for too long though,the smaller man's soft snores and quite mumblings pulled Evan back into reality,where instead of a shared house, they live in a shitty apartment with Regulus ,where instead of being able to bask in each others presence whilst watching the sun set,they would go out and do whatever the dark lord had instructed them to do for that day,and afterwards order some food and binge whatever series the other one had found.

Evan had decided a long time ago he was happy like this, happy with being close to Barty but never close enough to call him his, he was happy dating other people to keep his mind off of the shorter and to keep up an act around their friends, to not ruin the comfortable relationship the two of them had built together,to be able to hug Barty whenever he desired, to be able to hold him whilst he slept in his arms.
